Life in general, fiber arts in particular, near Twisp in the beautiful Methow Valley

Not fooling!

It is snowing here today. A fine thing for April Fool’s Day! The birds, many of whom have been returning the last couple of weeks, seem a little glum out at the feeder:

Brrrrds at the brrrd feeder

It is continuing to snow, building up on the roof and covering the ground, but not sticking to the road. The temperature is hovering right around freezing. A good day to stay inside!

I finished up 6 more shawls this week. I have now taken this warp setup off the loom and am moving on to another project. Our guild challenge this year is “Overshot” and I have been reading my books and thinking about it and am prepared to, well, take a shot at it. More on this later.

Shhhhhhh, your not suppose to tell anyone it’s still snowing, because last week I said the snow was all gone
Your shawls are so beautiful and now you don’t have to worry about the challenge since it’s been posponed till May. Sure, for once I’m ready for it.
